They're great. Very easy to use, and the pencils will last ages. I use a water brush pen to dilute, they're brilliant for soft outlines. Versatile, fun yo experiment with, and work perfectly in sketchbooks. Plus they're good value. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Graphitone pencils *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 23 November 2015* Derwent products are always as specified and always very good quality. These graphite pencils are lovely. Add water and they make a wash. Haven't had time yet to play with them. Adds a new possibility to art work. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Nice *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 24 December 2012* Just a beginner at drawing, but found these great to use like normal solid graphite pencils, but use a wet brush and you can get some nice shading effects. I've always found shading difficult to get looking neat using normal pencils/graphite sticks ## Frequently Bought Together - Derwent Watersoluble Graphitone Pencils, Fine Point, Black, 4 Pencils per Pack (34304) - Faber-Castell 5 Piece Quality Water-Soluble Graphite Aquarelle Pencils in a Tin, Including HB, 2B, 4B, 6B and 8B, Grey - Derwent Watersoluble Sketching Pencils, Metal Tin, 6 Count (0700837) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/47912949-derwent-34304-graphitone-watersoluble-graphite-pencils-set-of-4-shades](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/47912949-derwent-34304-graphitone-watersoluble-graphite-pencils-set-of-4-shades) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-09-04*
